Abstract

The aim of this paper is to lay the foundations foa a larger research project on Hope for the Earth? Eschatology, cosmology, and ecology in which I hope to explore the viability of an eschatological model for an ecological theology, spirituality and praxis (in South Africa). The notion of an eschatological approach to ecological theology is based on a very helpful typology suggested by John Haught.
